Re: [flexcoders] Re: Creating JarJam button Effect.

[Jeremy Rottman]

You are correct on not wanting to make the TitleWindow to be able to be dragged however I have yet to figure out how to disable the dragging on the TitleWindow. Our original idea was to use a panel however we would like it to be able to have the ability of a close button on the top right to imitate the jar jam, sadly though the panel does not come with this ability easily and the only custom panel component I have found works for 
1.5, if you have a solution to this with using a panel I would greatly appreciate your input.On 10/20/06, mdoberenz <

            You'll want to do this...

public function removeMe(event:CloseEvent):void {
	PopUpManager.removePopUp(event.currentTarget as 
DisplayObject);
}

Should work...

By the way, I'd suggest not using a TitleWindow, but instead, use a 
Panel.  I noticed that I can move the TitleWindow around wherever I 
want it to be.  If that's a desired effect, then I'd remove the < 
from the left-hand side b/c it's a bit confusing.

However, if you do this, you probably won't use the PopUpManager to 
create the TitleWindow.  You'll need to position the panel and move 
it wherever you'll need it using code.

Just my take on it.
